The Samsung i8910HD is a milestone in mobile technology. It’s the first mobile to be able to record high-definition video. It’s probably the highest-spec phone currently available, with an 8 megapixel camera, huge OLED touchscreen, MP3 player, FM radio, GPS, WiFi, HSDPA/HSUPA and up to 48GB of memory. If you want to be at the cutting edge, this is the phone for you in 2009.

Fwooar! The Samsung i8910HD (originally Omnia HD) is a damn sexy phone. It is the first phone with a high-definition camcorder (hence the name) function and has the world’s largest OLED display – 3.7 inches in diameter. It is a Symbian smartphone with an 8-megapixel camera, touch screen interface, Wi-Fi and A-GPS. Is there nothing this beast is not it?
